We Were All Rooting For You. Learn From This.

3/6 Edited to

... Read moreBetting on yourself as a freelancer or founder is both challenging and rewarding. From my own experience, one of the most important lessons I've learned is that "Rates are negotiable, but worth isn't." Undervaluing your work not only affects your income but also your self-confidence and how others perceive your value. I've realized that setting clear boundaries on what your services are worth is essential for long-term success. Another profound insight is that side projects or "side quests" often hold the key to your main mission. These are not distractions but opportunities to develop new skills that enrich your professional journey. For example, learning a new technique or exploring a different creative avenue can add unique dimensions to your portfolio and open unforeseen doors. Delegation is another game-changer. Trying to do everything alone is exhausting and unsustainable. Delegating tasks doesn’t mean defeat—it means you value quality and efficiency, allowing you to focus on what you do best. Building a supportive team or network is crucial for growth. Finally, I learned that humility, while a valuable trait, can sometimes be a "health hazard" if it prevents you from acknowledging your own critical role in your success. It’s important to celebrate your achievements and recognize that not everything is a team effort when your contribution is vital. Embracing these lessons has helped me grow not just as a creative professional but also as a person. Sharing these insights with other femalepreneurs, founders, and creators in communities has shown me the power of learning from experiences and supporting one another through our journeys.

A book open on a plaid blanket with a stick of butter as a bookmark, featuring the title "MUST HAVE BOOKS TO LEARN MANIPULATION," suggesting a list of books on the topic.
The book "The Art of Seduction" by Robert Greene, described as fascinating for understanding psychological attraction, with a warning that it can feel manipulative and should be read with caution.
The book "DARK psychology secrets" by Robert Dweck and Dan Proctor, highlighted as a scary but essential read for understanding manipulation, gaslighting, and control, to help identify toxic people.
Must have books to learn manipulation
I’ll be real—before reading these books, I thought manipulation was just something villains did in movies. Turns out, we’re ALL being manipulated daily, whether it’s by ads, politicians, or even our own friends (yikes) 😬 After reading these, I felt lowkey enlightened and slightly paranoid 🤯 But
